Unbrick Oneplus 10T Flash Firmware Via Fastboot Commands And Tool

If we shift our focus towards custom development, then things are getting complicated there as well. While you could still gain administrative privileges by rooting the device via Magisk and flash tons of custom ROMs, however, the biggest asset might no longer be under our control. Yes, we are talking about the MSM Tool that has now been hijacked by Oppo and could no longer be accessed by the general user until they have authenticated access. Fortunately, when it comes to softbrick or bootloop, you don’t need the help of the MSM Tool as you could easily unbrick your OnePlus 10T by flashing the stock firmware via Fastboot Commands. And in this guide, we will show you two different methods to do so. The first one is the automated approach wherein the Fastboot Enhance Tool will do the work on your behalf. On the other hand, the second method is the manual approach wherein you will have to manually flash each partition file using the commands provided by us. We have listed both these methods below, you may refer to the one that is in sync with your requirement.

STEP 1: Download Fastboot Enhance Tool

Download the Fastboot Enhance Tool from GitHub [direct link][Credits: XDA Senior Member xzr467706992]. Once downloaded, extract it to any convenient location on your PC. The biggest advantage of this tool is that you could directory flash the payload.bin file, there is no need to extract it and get the resultant IMG files!

STEP 2: Download OnePlus 10T ROM

STEP 3: Install Android SDK

Next up, install the Android SDK Platform Tools on your PC. This is the official ADB and Fastboot binary provided by Google and is the only recommended one. So download it and then extract it to any convenient location on your PC. Doing so will give you the platform-tools folder, which will be used throughout this guide.

STEP 4: Install Fastboot Drivers

The tool doesn’t come with the Fastboot Drivers, so you will manually have to install it on your PC. For that, please refer to our guide on How to Install Fastboot Drivers in Windows 11. Likewise, make sure to install the OnePlus USB Drivers as well [they are usually automatically installed as soon as you connect your device to the Windows PC for the first time].

STEP 5: Boot to Fastboot Mode

In most cases, a soft-bricked or boot-looped device might already be in the Fastboot Mode. However, if you are stuck in a bootloop, then long-press the Power key to turn it off. Then press and hold the Power and Volume Down keys (or Power and Volume Up) together to boot your device to Fastboot Mode.

However, if you are unable to power off the device, then let its battery drain out. Once that happens, connect it to the charger. Then as soon as it is about to boot up, use the Power and Volume Up/Down keys and it will straightaway boot to Fastboot Mode.

If you have downloaded the Fastboot ROM, then you could skip this step. On the other hand, if you have a payload.bin firmware, then you will have to extract it first and get the resultant IMG files.
